8 ways to make employee relocation a more positive experience By PODS for Business Mar 12, 2018Moving for a job is a big deal for employees and the employers moving them. A smooth move can pave the way for a seamless transition into a new position or facility, which is of huge value to businesses.Here are eight tips for making your next corporate relocation the easiest one yet.1. Be clear about relocation policiesA corporate relocation is a careful balancing act. Each party must feel the process is fair, especially when it comes to money. Having clear, well-expressed policies prevents misunderstandings and increases the likelihood of a successful move. Employees need to know what services are cost covered by the company, and what portions of the move they are responsible for. They need to know the specific relocation services the company provides. And they need the information in writing. That protects both parties from misunderstandings that arise in verbal agreements, and it provides a ready reference if needed.2. Forge relocation specialist partnerships that add valueThe logistics of a relocation often demand skills, products and services that are not core competencies of your company. So, cultivate partners that can help ease the burden for the employee, and for you. For example, when you partner with PODS®, your transferees enjoy simplified moves with single points of contact, flexible scheduling, and access to secure storage centers. PODS also adds certainty in pricing for your company with its lump sum and direct billing options. When you partner with relocation industry specialists, you offer your employees expert help in adjusting to their new surroundings.

3. Consider cost of living differenceA person earning $70,000 in Dodge City, Kansas, moving to Baltimore, Maryland, will experience a cost of living increase of almost 20 percent. An equivalent home will cost 35 percent more, and they’d need to make more than $83,000 per year to stay on an even footing, according to cost of living comparisons. So it’s often important to make corporate relocation assistance available for more than just moving expenses. Cost of living subsidies, help with child care, and loans to bridge time between mortgage transactions can help cover the difference between earnings and livings costs. Of course, in some cases, a salary bump won’t hurt either.4. Move employees with skills and who embrace changeIf a transferee doubts their ability to transition, you are adding risk to an already taxing event. It’s also important to ensure a good job fit. Moving someone without the experience or skills required and hoping they’ll get up to speed is asking a lot. They face moving challenges, and they also face adjusting to an unfamiliar workplace where they haven’t developed a strong support network. Be sure the employee is up for it before investing in a relocation.5. Make the relocation package convenient and descriptiveEach employee relocation is unique. Some transferees go ahead of family while others move together. In all cases, moving is complicated. Whatever you can do to make it easy helps turn a stressful situation into a manageable one. Instead of bombarding employees with folders filled with paper, provide information on USB drives or in the cloud. If your company has enough relocations to justify an instructional app, even better. Consider information you can include that provides assurances to your relocating employees. Go beyond just putting words on paper and describe the services employees can access to help put them at ease.6. Empower employees with resources and informationDesign your relocation services so they help employees feel empowered. Consider using short videos to introduce people to their new location. Besides giving them overviews of the workspace and facilities, include information about what’s nearby. Providing an overview of neighborhoods close to the job helps employees narrow their search for homes or apartments. Provide information about registering vehicles, public transportation, schools and getting drivers’ licenses.7. Maintain a personal touchDon’t go so overboard with technology that you remove people from the process. While employee relocation apps can help transferees track expenses, organize receipts and keep checklists, it’s still important to have the human touch. To avoid becoming impersonal, set up regular times for HR to check in with transferees. It’s amazing what you can find out about how your transferee’s relocation process is going just by informally chatting over coffee.8. Offer flexible storage solutionEmployees are not moving specialists. Most people underestimate the time and space they’ll need for transitioning their belongings. Often, they don’t ask for storage options, even though many say afterward they wished they had. Plus, they are dealing with the challenges of purchasing and selling homes and adapting their lives to a new city. This is another place where PODS excels at relocations. With PODS’ secure storage options at both ends of their move, transferees don’t have to deal with loading and unloading multiple times. Instead, they get flexibility in storing their personal items, and a helping hand to support them at what might otherwise be a stressful time.

Colorado's mountains and outdoor activities attract hundreds of thousands of people every year, and celebrities are not excluded. True, we aren't Hollywood, but many well-known actors and actresses have had the pleasure of enjoying all that Colorado has to offer. With epic ski resorts and acres of wilderness to submerge in tranquility, many celebrities have built extravagant oasis's in Colorado. Learn more below:

Oprah Winfrey: Another celebrity in Telluride is Oprah Winfrey. Her 60 acres includes a 5 bed and 6.5 spa-like baths spanning throughout her 8,706 square foot home. The mansion includes a fitness room, a game room, a 7-person indoor hot tub, a theater and a guest house. Other extravagances include a tree-top fire pit to roast marshmallows among the tree line, a 56 foot long wine tunnel to hold 1,600 bottles of wine and a glass bridge between upstairs rooms.

Kevin Costner: Kevin Costner lives part time at his 150 acre ranch in Aspen, Colorado. He got married here and Shakey Graves recorded an album in the compound when they were passing through Colorado in 2017.

President Ford: President Ford used to own a home in Beaver Creek. This ski chalet had front door ski-in, ski-out access to the slopes. With 7 beds, a theater, a game room, a private massage room, a separate caterer's kitchen and of course an office for President Ford, this home certainly is a mansion to behold.

Melanie Griffith: Melanie's raised her family for 15 years in her Aspen home. This 5 bed, 6 bath home comes complete with a 9,000-bottle wine cellar and 2 acres of Colorado's natural beauty. The town of Aspen is a short 15 minute drive and, after a long day of skiing or snowmobiling, there's nothing better than relaxing by the huge fireplace.

Joe King: Drummer Joe King from The Fray, lives in an architectural masterpiece. The wood slat exterior makes his home notable in the Wash Park area. This modern design is elegant with wood ceilings, brick walls and concrete mosaic tile inlays. The exterior was designed after the gas lanterns in New Orleans, in dedication to a city that King and his wife love. To top off the masterpiece, there is a private pool open year round and surrounded with a mahogany wood deck.

Making sure your kids are safe is always on the top of the mind for parents. So this Spring, along with your Spring cleaning, do some Spring safety-ing. First things first, check your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors. Make sure the batteries are new and working. For a general sweep through the house, make sure anything that a child can trip over is cleaned and out of the way. That includes extension chords or wires that should be tucked away and hidden.

As for security, all doors and windows should have properly functioning locks. Make sure latches haven't been broken off and that everything is tightly fastening. For an extra step, a home security system is always a smart thing to research and invest in to keep your mind at peace.

The kitchen is a hot spot for danger to children. So, as you are cleaning out, make sure to reorganize as well. Lower cabinets, or any area that can be accessed by children should be clear of sharp items, chemicals, suffocation hazards like plastics bags and any medication. Again, chords should hidden and never plugged in and stove knob covers should be considered as an extra precaution.

In the bathroom, always tend to your children when baths are being drawn. Children can drown in shallow water, so never leave a young child alone. Also, be aware of hiding your chemical cleaning products and not having chords near a child's reach or water.

Moving can be stressful and it is easy to get overwhelmed with all of the things you need to do to have an easy, successful move. One thing that can be easily overlooked is the safety of your home. So before you unpack, take a few measures to get your home safe and ready for move-in. Read the blog, Moving In: Security Checklist for your New Home, by ADT for more information.

Change the LocksYou never know who lived in your property before you moved in. Do yourself a favor and change the locks regardless of the situation.

Transfer or Invest in a New Security SystemThere’s no better way to make sure your home is secure 24/7 than installing a home security system.

Burglar-Proof Your House by Adding Video Surveillance and Motion Sensors for Complete SecurityLooking to bring a home security system that you have on your old house to your new house? Consider relocation services.

Install Indoor and Outdoor LightingDon’t stand out as the “new neighbor” by being the only dim house on the street at night. Keep your family protected by making your house look occupied at all times using light automation.

Keep Your Outside Area in Excellent ConditionDid you know burglars see the exterior of your property as a bullseye? If your lawn is unkempt or you have large shrubbery—burglars will see that as invitation to break in.

Have the Old System Checked OutIs there already a home security system in the house? Make sure you have it properly looked over and reactivated.

Talk with the NeighborsHaving trusted neighbors can immediately make living in a new place much safer. They may be able to help keep your house look occupied while you’re away by simply picking up the newspapers, shoveling your walkway, etc.

Remind Your Kids to be CautiousMoving to a new neighborhood means lots of unfamiliar faces for you and your family. Make sure your children are aware that they should never let a stranger into the house, leave the garage door up when they come in, or go exploring too far until you are more familiar with the area.

Need to sell a home fast? There are ways to make your home more appealing and stick out amongst other houses. So, get the job done fast and get into your new home sooner!

One thing to keep in mind is curb appeal. Simply repainting the exterior, trimming the bushes and cleaning up the yard will help your home have a great first impression. A buyer also wants to move into a home that looks well maintained. If it looks maintained, the buyer has more confidence that the home was taken care of and they won't run into other issues, such as plumbing, electrical, etc. once they own the home. Fixing small things like chipped paint on baseboards or repainting the walls, tightening door handles, etc, will allow the buyer to peruse the home without raising an eyebrow. You also want to invest in small things that will increase the value of your home and make it look more modern. New hardware, new outlet covers and light fixtures can do wonders. Adding light will make your home feel welcoming and warm, not dark and dingy.

You also want to make sure to stage the home. Remember, a buyer wants to envision how they would live in the home, not how you lived in the home. You want to clean up every room and make the house look as if it is ready to move in to. One important step in this is to remove any personal items from the walls or shelves. Don't have family photos or little nicknacks. Make it clean, spacious and as depersonalized as possible. A great tip for this is renting a storage unit. Buyers should be able to look behind every single door, including the closets and storage in the basement, without running into your piled up junk. So get it out of sight, out of mind.

Finally, you want to set the price right and get out the word before you even have to put the home on the market. Setting the price right entails the experience of a realtor to make sure you are getting more money than it is appraised for, but not asking for too much that will deter clients to your neighbors cheaper equivalent of a home. Shopping around for a realtor can be tricky, so go online and look up reviews and check their track record. For getting out the word, mentioning that your home will be put on sale before it actually is can save you money. Marketing a home takes finances, so try to find that buyer before you even have to fork up the expense.
